GS and Pots - Page 2

I use GS for all my tanks just about, but I have seen some horror stories with the backs coming out. You have to use some common sense. The more weight that you put on a piece of thin glass the more pressure will be pulling in one direction. I can say that I haven't had this probem but i am suprised that it hasn't happen to me.

Socal great pics BTW.

Thanks! I think it could have been better , but thats me always thinking I could have done something to make it better. Lol the little Cristia obcodata had a broken branch so i had that little plastic piece holding it up till it healed itself if you all ar wondering what that thing is.

Ok so I got the GS today at lowes and they only had red and yellow cans? I picked the red cans cause it was a dollar cheaper then the yellow. How many cans do I need to fill up a 40 gallon background?

Also is it better to silcone the driftwood on to the glass first then put the GS on top of it?

Hi Socalsam,
